	Formula Three - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Formula Three, also called Formula 3 or, in abbreviated form, F3, is a type of formula racing and a class of open-wheeler motor racing.
		The formula was the usual route into motor racing through the early and mid 1950s (and stars like Stirling Moss continued to race in selected F3 races even during their GP careers) although started to decline in the UK when small sports cars powered by Coventry-Climax and Ford engines became more important.
		Formula Three was in abeyance from the late 1950s to 1963; both it and (eventually) Formula Two were replaced by Formula Junior for 1000 or 1100cc cars (on a sliding scale of weights).

	British Formula Three Championship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is one of the main Formula Three competitions in Europe.
		The majority of the meetings are held in the United Kingdom, but some are held on the Continent.
		In the 1970s there were two competing series, both of which represented the British Formula 3 championship, so there are multiple champions listed for those years.

	Gil de Ferran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He graduated to Formula Ford level in 1987 and Formula Three in 1991.
		De Ferran won the British Formula Three Championship in 1992, scoring seven wins in the process.
		The expected championship challenge never materialised in 1998, unreliability, driver errors and the inferior performance of the Goodyear tyres compared to the Firestone tyres all combined to leave de Ferran twelfth in the standings, again with no wins in the year.

	Formula Three - Psychology Central
		The 500cc formula originally evolved from low-cost 'special' racing organised by enthusiasts in Bristol just before the Second World War - British racing after the war picked up slowly and home-built 500cc motorbike-engined cars were affordable.
		With the demise of that series, national championships took prominence, with the British Formula Three Championship gaining special prominence with a number of future Formula One champions, coming from this series.
		In germany there is still a formule three series called the Recaro Cup Formul3.de The most recent Formula One racer to come out through Formula Three ranks is Nico Rosberg, who competed in the Formula Three Euroseries in 2003, who will compete for Williams-Cosworth in 2006.

	Nelson Piquet snr on his son
		With his son leading the Avon Tyres British Formula Three Championship, triple Formula One World Champion, Nelson Piquet, made a rare visit to Europe to watch him in action at Spa-Francorchamps earlier this month.
		As a past winner of the British F3 title - 1978, in the BP championship for those anoraks amongst you - Piquet Sr is the right person to give an opinion on the current series and how his son's season compares with his own.
		The level of input from both the team and driver has moved on from 1978 and he believes that although the standard of driving is roughly the same, the increasing use of technology has made life a little bit easier for Nelson Jr to make the step to F3 many years before his father did.

		Robbie Kerr moved into a commanding championship lead in the British Formula Three championship after winning two of the three races at Snetterton.
		Despite a first corner clash with rival James Courtney in the opening race, replacing the cancelled Croft race, he fought back with two superb victories to stamp his authority on the 2002 title chase.
		Although the battle for the top three positions had been dull, the scrap for fourth position between Kovalainen, Courtney and Alan van der Merve was the highlight of the race, with the position eventually settled in favour of the Finn.
